The Franchise Maker® takes the pain and complexity out of franchising by offering an affordable, efficient and comprehensive solution for business owners looking to franchise their business. We have done that with tons of other businesses (see all the different types of businesses we have franchised below), we can do the same for you!
If you have a successful business, want grow it by allowing other people to start their own business under your name and wondering what it takes to make a franchise, call us! After all, what better way to saturate the market place than to have other entrepreneurs using their talent and resources to grow your business?
Franchising solves the problem of having to open up additional locations and hire staff who ultimately do not care about the business, compared to a franchise owner who has “skin in the game” to make the business thrive.
Throughout franchising history, there have been three constants which have fueled the growth of franchising in general: The desire to expand, the lack of financial resources to open additional company-owned locations and the need to overcome distance.
If you are talking with a company about franchising your business and they do not list their clients on their website, you should be very concerned. What are they hiding? Perhaps they are more concerned with getting their fee and just want your money! Such companies are not at all concerned with your success because their track record is nothing but failures. Or maybe such companies have no clients they can claim they have taken to franchise from start-to-finish. These may be just a few reasons why some of the companies you find touting that they will franchise your business are embarrassed to publicly list all their clients.
The Franchise Maker is very transparent and we work with businesses we believe make sense to franchise. All the clients listed on our website are businesses from all sectors and a wide variety of industries that we have taken through the franchise process. See for yourself below!
All the clients you see as you scroll thru the window on the right (or below if you are on a mobile device) are businesses we
have taken to franchise and have worked with each of them to make a franchise out of what they
already created.
Yep that’s right, each one of these businesses were just like you, searching for answers on how to franchise. When each one
contacted us, these business owners explained how they have worked hard to make their business
the best they could, have experienced success in their area, treat their business like their
baby and would love to see it grow but afraid of what to do next.
These businesses owners were
looking for someone to shepherd them thru the incredible maze of franchising, teach them what
they do not know and build a franchise program that protects what they have created while at the
same time making a franchise that is attractive and affordable for the average person to buy
into and earn a living.
As our President Dave says (some call him the magician), he believes all
he really does is put the pieces together. While our clients give us much more credit than that
(see for yourself what our clients have to say) Dave is adamant the real success lies in each
person.
Dave started The Franchise Maker in 2005 (and by the way that is a real date not some fictitious date made up to make you believe we have been around a long time) with the passion of wanting to help business owners like you turn their business into a franchise without having to deal with high fees and reverse delegation. Each one of our clients came to us with passion and conviction to change a little piece of the world through the business they created. They all had in common the strong desire to share what they are doing with as many people as possible in as many areas as possible. While some business owners come to us wanting to have their business in every suburb of every city, others are content with just growing in their current state. Whatever their motivation, we are privileged to have had the opportunity to work with each one of these very accelerated entrepreneurs who are on a mission to demonstrate that the next challenge they want to master is teaching other people how be successful. Does this sound like you? Maybe you can too can be one of our clients
